Carryovers

Jill Byrne's Handicapping

Maybelle Slew (2) drops in class and goes for a sharp barn first off the claim. She has a solid local record and looks good here. Another Trick (3) is another course specialist stepping up off a nice victory. Abelha Maestra (6) seems to prefer the dirt course and will be closing late.
JILL’S SELECTIONS – 2-3-6

Tiz Now My Choice (4) impressed in his local win and now returns to the races as a first time gelding. Midnite Poppa (8) just missed last out and fits nicely on the class drop today. Conspiracy (1) has better form on synthetic surfaces but can get a piece of this.
JILL’S SELECTIONS – 4-8-1

Sweetonrich (2) steps down the claiming ladder and turns back in distance. With plenty of pace in here she should be able to close well. Comanche Princess (7) has the pace to be in position and is well drawn outside to get a perfect trip. Brezing Rain (10) seems to run well locally and now takes a drop in class here.
JILL’S SELECTIONS – 2-7-10

Why Not More (5) ran evenly in her first attempt at a marathon distance and can improve today. Honey Lake (1) finished in front of the top pick last out and has the pace to take this gate to wire. Lisvernane (8) is a bit inconsistent but has shown some promise at these conditions previously.
JILL’S SELECTIONS – 5-1-8

Ouiser (4) returns to the main track and drops in class for a sharp stable. Jumping Justice (1) comes in to this in good form. Milhojas (7) turns back in distance and will be staying on late.
JILL’S SELECTIONS – 4-1-7

KB Biorhythms (2) raced evenly in her debut from the rail versus better and can improve off that experience and the class drop. Shoot The Drone (7) made up some ground in her only try and is well placed here. Falcon Harbor (9) is another stepping down in competition that fits well here.
JILL’S SELECTIONS – 2-7-9

Sense Of A Woman (8) is well spotted for leading connections off the claim and fits well in here. Tricolette (7) takes blinkers off and ran well in her prior starts locally. Moneygrabber (4) steps up in the best form of the field and would be no surprise here.
JILL’S SELECTIONS -8-7-4

Wicked Temper (4) had a wide debut trip and should relish the surface switch to turf and the added ground. Code Name Ava (5) raced evenly in her first start and can improve with that experience. Jannes Paul (1) exits that same race and should also improve with a start.
JILL’S SELECTIONS -4-5-1

Bourbon Courage (2) returns to the races with a series of steady workouts. He has the solid class edge and if he’s ready to fire, he is the one to beat. Bulldozer (4) is in very sharp form and looks to get a perfect stalking trip. Shared Property (6) has shown the ability to compete at this level and looks perfectly set up for today’s distance.
JILL’S SELECTIONS- 2-4-6

Optionality (12) has a poor draw but catches a soft group and with some racing luck should get his first win here. Paciencia Y Fe (1) is at the other end of the gate and has improved in his last two tries. Collins (11) has also moved forward since dropping in class and running on dirt. Southern Match (5) and Mr Supernova (7) look good in the Super Hi 5.
JILL’S SELECTIONS – 12-1-11-5-7
